Sales Detail
Magill has an estimated 10,459 residents, up from 9,693 at the 2021 Census — a change of 766 people, or 7.9%. Growth has averaged 1.4% a year over five years. Overseas migration accounts for 96.0% of that increase. That puts 2,988 residents on each square kilometre. Population is estimated from ABS Estimated Resident Population releases and GNAF address data, re-based from the 2021 Census and updated annually.
Detail
According to ABS demographic updates for the surrounding region and subsequent address validations by AreaSearch since the Census, the suburb of Magill has a population estimated at 10,459 as of May 2026. This represents an expansion of 766 residents (7.9%) relative to the 2021 Census, which documented 9,693 residents. The shift is calculated from a resident base of 10,428, determined by AreaSearch using the ABS demographic update from June 2025 alongside 83 validated new addresses confirmed after the Census. This population size results in a density of 2,988 persons per square kilometer, placing the locality in the highest quarter of all Australian areas assessed by AreaSearch.
The 7.9% expansion rate in the suburb of Magill since the 2021 census outpaced the state average of 7.5%, establishing the locality as a regional leader in growth. This upward trajectory was largely fueled by arrivals from overseas, who accounted for roughly 96.0% of the total population increase during the recent timeframe. AreaSearch utilises population projections from the ABS and Geoscience Australia for individual SA2 sectors, published in 2024 with 2022 as the anchor year. For SA2 territories lacking this coverage, and for any projections extending beyond 2032, regional and LGA forecasts categorized by age bracket from the SA State Government (released in 2023 using 2021 data) are applied, utilizing a weighted aggregation method to scale growth from LGA to SA2 levels. Looking ahead, the suburb of Magill is projected to experience growth exceeding the median of areas tracked by AreaSearch, with aggregated SA2 calculations indicating an expansion of 1,701 residents by 2041, representing a total rise of 16.0% over the 16 years.
Frequently Asked Questions - Population
327 new dwellings have been approved in Magill over the past five years, an average of 65 a year. That places the area in the 67th percentile for residential development activity nationally, about 6 approvals per 1,000 residents a year. Of the 55 dwellings approved in the latest reporting year, 69% were detached houses and the rest townhouses or apartments. Approvals are currently running at an annualised 46, well below that longer-run average. Figures come from ABS building approvals aggregated to this Suburb (SAL) boundary and are updated monthly as the ABS releases them.
Detail
Based on AreaSearch research into building approvals allocated from statistical areas, Magill averages approximately 65 new residential approvals annually. This includes an estimated 327 residential approvals over the 5 financial years from FY-21 to FY-25, and 43 approvals during the current FY-26 period. An average of 2.1 new residents moved to the locality for each newly built home during the 5 financial years from FY-21 to FY-25, indicating healthy demand that helps sustain local property values. Newly approved dwellings carry an average construction value of $561,000, showing that developers are prioritizing high-end, premium housing options.
Furthermore, commercial approvals totaling $4.6 million have been documented in the current financial year, highlighting the strongly residential character of the neighborhood. Recent construction approvals consist of 69.0% standalone houses and 31.0% multi-unit dwellings, indicating a rising volume of medium-density choices that provide diverse housing paths across different budgets, ranging from classic family residences to more affordable, space-efficient options. There are roughly 241 residents for every residential approval, suggesting potential for further building activity. Long-term projections indicate that Magill is set to add 1,670 new residents by 2041, according to the latest quarterly calculations from AreaSearch. Current levels of development appear to align well with these future needs, promoting balanced market conditions and minimizing upward pressure on prices.

Campbelltown Community Heart - New Council Office
Following extensive community consultation in late 2025, Campbelltown City Council resolved in December 2025 to proceed with a new, fit-for-purpose Council Office at the existing precinct at 172 Montacute Road, Rostrevor (Option A). The 1968 office building is outdated, overcrowded and no longer fit for purpose. A PAC was deferred as a potential second stage, to be explored after the new office is delivered. The Alinea Group was engaged to develop concept models for the site.Detailed planning is now underway. The project is part of Council's broader Creating our Community Heart vision for the Montacute Road precinct.

Expected completion early 2026.
5,738 residents of Magill are employed, from a labour force of 5,890. Unemployment sits at 2.6%, with participation at 67.4%. Weighted for its industry mix, the area's sectors are forecast to grow about 6.9% nationally over five years. That reflects industry composition only and makes no allowance for local population growth. The working-day population is estimated at 8,828, about 84% of the resident population, so more people leave the area for work than travel in. Unemployment and labour force come from ABS Small Area Labour Markets, updated quarterly; the industry and occupation profile is from the 2021 Census.
Detail
The local workforce is highly educated, featuring a strong contingent of professional services workers, a low unemployment rate of 2.6%, and an estimated job growth rate of 5.1% over the prior year, according to AreaSearch regional aggregations. As of March 2026, employed residents numbered 5,738, while the unemployment rate sat 1.2% lower than the Greater Adelaide figure of 3.8%. Participation in the labor force is generally in line with the Greater Adelaide benchmark of 66.6%. Census data indicates a moderate 14.0% of the working population operated from home, though this figure may be influenced by restrictions associated with the pandemic.
Local employment is largely concentrated within healthcare & social assistance, education & training, and professional & technical sectors. The neighborhood exhibits a clear concentration in education & training jobs, with representation reaching 1.4 times the regional average. Conversely, construction accounts for only 6.8% of the local workforce, trailing the Greater Adelaide benchmark of 8.7%. Because the area is mostly residential, local job openings appear limited when comparing the number of employed residents to the local job pool counted in the Census. According to AreaSearch evaluations of SALM and ABS statistics aggregated from wider geographic regions, employment expanded by 5.1% and the labor force grew by 4.9% during the year ending March 2026, leading to a 0.2 percentage point reduction in the unemployment rate. Over the same period in Greater Adelaide, employment increased by 4.2%, the labor force expanded by 4.0%, and the unemployment rate decreased by 0.2 percentage points. National employment projections released in May-25 by Jobs and Skills Australia provide additional context on potential workforce demand in Magill. These five and ten-year forecasts have been applied to the local workforce structure to model future employment trends. Although national employment is projected to grow by 6.6% over five years and 13.7% over ten years, the rates of change vary widely by industry. Projecting these industry-specific trends onto the local workforce suggests employment in Magill could grow by 6.9% over five years and 14.3% over ten years, representing a simple weighted extrapolation that does not incorporate localized population shifts.

How the numbers are built
Population
The Census provides the small-area baseline, aggregated from mesh blocks to this boundary. It is then re-based to the ABS Estimated Resident Population (June 2025 release), and new dwellings built since Census night are counted from address data — 83 validated new addresses here. The headline figure is therefore a current estimate for May 2026, not a 2021 count (9,693 at the 2021 Census → 10,459 now). Annual growth rates are compound (CAGR), not simple averages.
Age profile
Cohort shares are not raw Census counts. Every cohort is held as a pair — the Census baseline and a current estimate — and the split is re-based using ERP and state population projections, current to May 2026. Median age is the Census median plus modelled change since. Charts that show both are labelled "2021 Census vs Current Estimate".
Property sales
Sourced from the state valuation authority's sales register — current, not Census, and refreshed weekly. Medians are calculated from settled transactions in the period shown; periods with very low transaction counts are flagged or suppressed, because a handful of sales can move a median substantially.
Rents
Derived from state rental bond lodgement data, by dwelling type and bedroom count. Bonds are lodged at the start of a new tenancy, so this reflects new lettings, not the whole rented stock.
Development & infrastructure
Building approvals come from current ABS releases; development applications are collected from council and state planning portals; the infrastructure pipeline is compiled from Infrastructure Australia and local government sources. Applications are matched to this boundary by address or coordinates, so very recent lodgements may not yet appear.
Employment & income
Industry and occupation structure comes from the Census, but the headline labour-market indicators do not. Unemployment and labour force are derived from ABS Small Area Labour Markets (quarterly). The employment outlook applies Department of Employment forecasts for all 19 industry divisions to this area's own industry mix (the agency is now Jobs and Skills Australia), as does the Internet Vacancy Index used for job demand. Because it is weighted on industry composition alone, that outlook carries no allowance for local population growth — in fast-growing areas the real rise in local jobs will typically be higher. Income combines Census household income with ATO taxable-income statistics for FY 2023, indexed forward using the Wage Price Index.
Education, transport & amenities
School enrolments, ICSEA and performance come from ACARA's current release, not the Census. Public transport stops and service frequency are derived from GTFS timetable feeds published by state transport departments. Services and amenities are proximity and count scores built from provider directories, refreshed on their own cycle. The Census contributes only the travel-to-work and qualification measures.
Rankings and benchmarks. Where we rank this area, the comparison set is every area of the same boundary type — suburbs against suburbs, SA2s against SA2s. Benchmarks compare this area against its greater capital city region and the national figure for the same measure and period.
Limits worth knowing. Small areas carry larger error margins, and the ABS introduces small random adjustments to Census counts to protect confidentiality — so totals may not sum exactly. Estimates re-based from regional data describe the area's expected trajectory, not a direct count of it. Figures are indicative for research and are not financial, planning or valuation advice.
Cross-check us. The Census baseline for this boundary is at ABS 2021 Census QuickStats (SAL40806). QuickStats reports 2021 only — the figures on this page are more current wherever the ledger shows a later date.
